Displacement assistance device for a system for storage and removal from storage

摘要

The device applies to systems in which units are placed in channels with rollers or with a smooth floor. It includes a bar 6 placed longitudinally under the channel and having studs 8 uniformly arranged in a row along a generatrix. The bar 6 is capable of being displaced by sliding along its axis and by rotating on itself to permit the pivoting of the studs 8 in order to engage them above the plane of the channel by orienting them upwards or retracting them by inclining them from their upright position. The device is very simple and can be applied to gravity conveyors as well as to horizontal conveyors. <IMAGE>
